I think I know the poster she is talking about...........there are nuts on both sides of the spectrum...........
yeah, I wouldn't know of any school today that would allow that.....
now, years ago, we had gun club in school, and kids were allowed to bring their rifles to school on the bus....but the rules were very strict....they were not allowed to be loaded, and as soon as they arrived at school they took them right to the leader of the gun club...
but honestly Jeff, I don't know of any kid that would even think of shooting other kids when we were growing up....it was just different times.
Now I do know of an accident that happened....but that was one kid.
I just read the kid in Ohio, went into the bathroom and shot himself.
They left all the kids go home.

Our school was like that in the 60's hardly anyone even talked about shooting another student. However with that being said,had a classmate who went to a larger town on weekends....... hung with a "gang" he came to school one Monday and we helped him pick some buck shot out of his stomach. few instances like that but definitely not some picked on psyco who wanted to wipe out the school...............
I bet if there was a $500 fine for not keeping your gun securely locked up, that kid would never have gotten his hands on it.
Or you can be a parent and teach your child the importance of a gun and there is no "reset" button if you shoot someone.
I have 2 loaded pistols in the house, my son (16) knows where they both are, he does not touch them, why you ask, because I taught him. I also pay attention to my son, I know when he is in a bad mood...how things are going at school, you know, that parenting thing....
am I missing something? Are kids allowed to take guns to school....
BentBow's are. He has used his wisdom to decide he is smarter than the SCOTUS, and has deemed current US Law Unconstitional. He sent his children to school packing. And is proud of it.
My intent here is not just to call him out. It's more along the lines of exposing your (and mine, up until a few hours ago) naivete to think that those advocating for 2A rights were usually practitioners of safety and abiders of the law. We know better now.
On the law abiding scale, those who bring concealed handguns to school rank just below unarmed people that sell drugs on school. At least an innocent child has to play a part in buying drugs. They just have to show up to AP Math or English to be shot by an errant bullet though.
S*** rolls downhill, at least that's what I was taught...
many times I've mentioned, "The good ol' Days" and people become extremely offended, angry, or mock.
I remember my generation doing it to older folks, and I thought, "Yanno, I've learned so many things from my Pop pop, who was 107 when he passed away. Too bad I was cocky and didn't talk to him more and write his stories down. But more times than not, I'd ponder why cocky young people "think" they know more than older people, and why are older people treated so disrespectful by the young, especially when someday, they to will be old?
My point is, the corruption I've seen grow in this country is pathetic....yet, people deny, and continually vote in these corrupt politicians, and then they whine, "ohhhhh I don't listen to the news, it's too disturbing", then they walk into a voting booth, pull that lever, and feel their jobs are done for another 4 years, knowing nothing but voting for their party...b/c their parents were, or voting for a woman, b/c they want women in, or voting for their party for fear of being disloyal to self. And that is the shame of it all.
what parents do not realize, when they're young, is, you talk about S*** rolling downhill, how kids, sit back and inhale everything about they're parents. EVERYTHING! or NOTHING!
I remember my parents sitting around on the porch talking about how things were changing, and how awful it was....
Change is Inevitable, as is our planets evolve, so do we....lots of change is exceptionally good, but other changes are not so good, and yet, people never learn from history, and more and more I'm seeing people who just simply want to be right, disregarding what it true...?
Kids need structure, they need "both" parents, they need many adults to observe and take from...they need firm discipline...spanking is not beating a child....you can't be your child's best friend...until they've grown....until then, parents have a huge responsibility...to teach, and train, and set example so that those future leaders of America, will grow up to be responsible good parents. However, something happened along the way, that is and had been extremely dangerous. Which is corroding our entire nation....and it's coming at us from both sides, there is not one side worse than the other....and yet, no one seems to ask the right questions, why?
Kids no longer fear a consequence for their actions....b/c they are watching and learning from their parents.
A guy followed me home last evening with a kid in the car...he was all over the road, talking on the phone, not paying attention. His arms were whirling around, must have been a very important phone call. At one point he slammed on his breaks to keep from hitting me. I pulled over and left him drive by....
And he is the reason his kid will grow up disrespecting the laws, cops, other rules in other homes....
perhaps someday, taking a gun to school....
and yet, Hell, Ban the guns....
